Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolHannah Gould is a Senior Software Engineer with seven years of experience building identity and release automation systems at GitHub and Microsoft. She specializes in backend and CI/CD tooling, contributing to prominent open-source projects like Azure Pipelines tasks and the App Center CLI where she focused on automation, test infrastructure, and autorest-generated client maintenance. At GitHub she has progressed through multiple engineering levels, working on identity-related platform features while retaining a hands-on approach to build/release engineering. Her strengths include improving test reliability, automating complex publish workflows (multiple destinations and symbol uploads), and cleaning up generated API client code to reduce maintenance burden. Based in the Greater Seattle area, she combines a Computer Science degree from the University of Michigan with practical experience shipping developer tooling at scale. Colleagues would describe her as detail-oriented and pragmatic, often fixing upstream generator issues that quietly prevent future bugs.
